BORN IN CHINA – Opening In Theatres Everywhere This Friday!!!

I am so excited that Disneynature’s BORN IN CHINA opens in theatres everywhere this Friday! My favorite part about this film is that moviegoers who see Disneynature’s new True Life Adventure film BORN IN CHINA during its opening week (April 21-27, 2017) will benefit the World Wildlife Fund (WWF). Based on opening-week attendance, Disneynature, via the Disney Worldwide Conservation Fund, will make a contribution to the WWF to help protect wild pandas and snow leopards in China.

Narrated by John Krasinski (“13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi,” NBC’s “The Offi ce,” “Amazon’s “Jack Ryan”), Disneynature’s new True Life Adventure fi lm “Born in China” takes audiences on an epic and exciƟ ng journey into the wilds of China where few people have ever ventured. “The fi lm shows an authenƟ c side of nature in China that global audiences haven’t seen before,” says director Lu Chuan. “These animals are metaphors. They give birth, like we do. They do their best to raise their cubs, like we do. They succeed and they fail. Their drive to do what is best for their families resonates with all of us.” Following the stories of three animal families, the fi lm transports audiences to some of the world’s most extreme environments to witness wildly inƟ mate moments in the lives of these animals, whose day-to-day endeavors are both capƟ vaƟ ng and comical. A doƟ ng panda bear mother guides her growing baby as she begins to explore and seek independence. A 2-year-old golden snub-nosed monkey, who feels displaced by his new baby sister, joins up with a group of free-spirited outcasts. And a mother snow leopard—an elusive animal rarely seen by human eyes—faces the very real drama of raising her two cubs in one of the harshest and most unforgiving environments on Earth.

I also wanted to share with you an adorable video of BORN IN CHINA narrator John Krasinski freaking out over the adorable baby animals in the film:
